fix(api): use web login for e-Connect to register the client for long-polling

Related Issues

• Fixes Polling is not triggered even when there are changes #158

Proposed Changes:

This change (re)introduces the web page login when e-Connect alarm system is used. This is required as it seems the public API doesn't register the client to get updates from the long-polling API.

We introduce also tests/scripts/debug_polling.py debug script to verify if long-polling is working or not in a real world scenario.

Testing:

Use tests/scripts/debug_polling.py to see if long polling works in your scenario.

Extra Notes (optional):

This is a temporary change as it looks like Elmo is making updates to the Cloud API. As soon as a new public and documented API is out, we'll probably drop this approach in favor of something more reliable.
